De Kelders is one of the only north-facing areas along the southern coast of South Africa, therefore sunsets over the ocean can be enjoyed all year round. Most important however is the fact that the famous Cape South Easter wind blows from behind the property over the Atlantic and therefore protects the house from the wind. The De Kelders view encompasses the whole of Walker Bay, which extends from the pristine sandy beach, “Die Plaat”, across to Hermanus, Hangklip and on a clear day, Cape Point. The rough coastline and steep, high cliffs are natural lookout points to watch the whales, and makes De Kelders the most accessible site for land-based viewing of Southern Right Whales anywhere in the world.
The exceptional natural beauty and crime-free nature of De Kelders makes it a sought after residential area offering an unsurpassed Mediterranean lifestyle and an excellent investment opportunity. The local municipality is known as one of the best run and functional municipalities in South Africa.
This property has been run as one of the most popular guesthouses in the area, mainly for overseas tourists, it is therefore suitable for a continuation in the tourism industry. However, it would also be most suitable as a private home due to the room configuration.
De Kelders is 160km from Cape Town, 40km from Hermanus and 3km from the fishing town of Gansbaai.
